Sun Shield - for Baby
Full Ingredient List
| Ingredient | What it is, where it comes from, and why it's here |
|---|---|
| Purified Water (Aqua) | The base of the formula. Water purified to remove impurities that could affect baby skin or reduce ingredient performance. |
| EcoSunsafe™ Defense Plus | A next-generation UV filter complex that amplifies the SPF performance of the physical blockers. Free from Oxybenzone, Octinoxate, and Avobenzone. Clinically tested and certified non-irritant. This complex contains: |
| Ethylhexyl Triazone | A highly efficient UVB filter that absorbs the rays responsible for sunburn and skin damage. One of the most photostable UVB filters available, meaning it does not break down in sunlight and maintains its protective performance throughout wear. Approved for use in sunscreens across Europe, Asia, and India. |
| Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine | A broad-spectrum filter that covers both UVA and UVB rays. It is also a photostabiliser — meaning it prevents the other UV filters in the formula from degrading in sunlight, keeping the entire system performing consistently from first application to last. One of the most advanced UV filters currently available. |
| Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate | A UVA filter that specifically targets the longer UVA wavelengths responsible for skin ageing, pigmentation, and deeper skin damage. Works synergistically with the other two UV filters to ensure complete coverage across the full UV spectrum. |
| Phenoxyethanol | A gentle, globally accepted preservative included at a very low concentration to keep the complex stable and safe throughout its shelf life. The same preservative used across many baby and sensitive skin products worldwide. |
| Aqua (Purified Water) | The carrier base that allows the UV filter components to be evenly distributed and delivered into the formula consistently. |
| Glycerin | A plant-derived humectant that draws moisture into the skin and holds it there throughout sun exposure. Keeps baby skin comfortable and hydrated. |
| Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride | Derived from coconut oil. Gives the formula a smooth, lightweight texture and helps other ingredients spread and absorb evenly. |
| Isopropyl Myristate | A skin-conditioning ingredient that helps the sunscreen spread evenly across baby skin without heaviness. |
| Styrene/Acrylates Copolymer | A film-forming ingredient that helps the sunscreen create a consistent, even layer across the skin — important for uniform UV protection. |
| Dimethicone | A baby-safe silicone that gives the sunscreen its water-resistant properties. Keeps the formula in place through swimming, sweating, and outdoor activity. |
| Phenoxyethanol and Ethylhexylglycerin | A gentle, globally accepted preservative system. Safe for use in baby products. Used as an alternative to parabens. |
| Cyclopentasiloxane | A lightweight safe silicone that gives the sunscreen its smooth, silky application feel. Helps the formula spread easily and absorb without a heavy residue. |
| Triethanolamine | A pH-adjusting ingredient used in very small amounts in cosmetic formulations. Its purpose in these products is to bring the formula to the correct pH level — the level at which the skin is most safe, comfortable. It is not present as an active ingredient. |
| Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer | A gentle thickening agent that gives the sunscreen its consistent texture and helps it stay evenly distributed on the skin after application. |
| Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe Vera) Leaf Extract | Soothes and calms sun-exposed skin. Reduces the risk of post-sun irritation. One of the most well-tolerated botanicals for infant skin. |
| Cucumis Sativus (Cucumber) Fruit Extract | Naturally cooling and rich in antioxidants. Counteracts the heat and dryness that sun exposure causes, keeping baby skin comfortable and refreshed. |
| Chamomilla Recutita (Chamomile) Flower Extract | One of the most studied botanicals in baby skincare. Absorbs quickly, calms reactive skin, reduces redness, and provides antioxidant protection. |
| Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract | Derived from the marigold flower. Calms, soothes, and protects sensitive baby skin from environmental stress. Trusted in baby skincare for its wound-healing and anti-inflammatory properties. |
| Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5) | Supports skin recovery and comfort during and after sun exposure. Improves softness and helps maintain the skin's natural barrier. |
| Perfume | Regenerist EU:A fresh, gentle and clean fragrance used at less than 0.05% — the minimum needed for a gentle scent experience while keeping the formula safe for baby skin. IFRA-compliant and free from endocrine disruptors. |
| Allantoin | A naturally occurring compound known for its ability to soothe irritation and promote skin cell renewal. It softens skin and supports the healing of dry or damaged areas. |
| Polysorbate 20 | A gentle, plant-derived ingredient that keeps the formula stable and ensures all ingredients remain evenly distributed. |
| Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil | A gentle, lightweight oil rich in Vitamin E. Nourishes and softens baby skin during sun exposure without heaviness. |
| Lactic Acid | A gentle, pregnancy and baby safe ingredient derived from natural sources. It is used in minimal concentration to adjust the pH of the product. |
| Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil | A nourishing oil that contributes to the protective layer of the sunscreen. Conditions and softens skin while helping the formula stay in place. |
| Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil | Rich in antioxidants and nourishing compounds. Supports the skin barrier and prevents the moisture loss that sun exposure can cause. |
| Sodium Gluconate | Derived from glucose. Neutralises mineral ions that can compromise formula performance. Supports the preservative system so less preservative is needed. |
| Zinc Oxide | A physical mineral UV filter that sits on top of the skin and reflects both UVA and UVB rays. The gold standard in baby sunscreens — does not absorb into the skin. |
| Titanium Dioxide | A second physical UV filter that works alongside Zinc Oxide to provide complete broad-spectrum coverage without chemical UV absorbers. |
| Sodium Hyaluronate (Hyaluronic Acid) | A deeply penetrating form of Hyaluronic Acid that holds up to 1000x its weight in water. Delivers sustained, deep hydration and plumps skin texture. Keeps baby skin deeply hydrated throughout sun exposure, preventing the dryness that UV radiation can cause. |
| Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil | Mimics the skin's natural oils. Maintains comfortable hydration without greasiness throughout the day. |
| Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E) | Antioxidant that neutralises free radicals generated by UV exposure. Supports overall skin health with daily use. |
| Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil | Conditions and softens skin, providing an additional layer of moisture support under the sun. |
| Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter) | Prevents the skin from drying out under sun exposure. Ensures every application also nourishes — because protection and comfort should go hand in hand. |
